It's interesting to see footage of upcoming ports coming out of Gamescom, but with a lot of people freaking out over stuff like Elden Ring performing poorly, I feel like it needs to be kept in mind with the demos at these events are pre-release code.
These days, developers optimize their games right up to release day via day 1 patches. (And often beyond) Many of these games are not out for months yet, and we don't know how old the demo builds are.
Something like Elden Ring could (and hopefully will) be in better shape by the time it's in our hands.
